Porcelli AM, Ghelli A, Zanna C, Pinton P, Rizzuto R, Rugolo M. pH difference across the outer mitochondrial membrane measured with a green fluorescent protein mutant. Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 2005 Jan 28 326(4):799-804. p.803 left column top paragraphPubMed ID15607740

| Method |
It is possible for the first time to provide
an estimation of the Donnan potential, from the [H+] values in
the two compartments (cytosol and intermembrane space) by means of the Nernst equation. |
| Comments |
Interestingly, a value of 43 mV was obtained, which is
very similar to the voltage required in electrophysiological
experiments to switch the conductance of Voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC)
incorporated in a planar membrane from a high to a
low conductance (15–40 mV). |
